DANU

In the merry berried night
In the last of the light
Carried in a raven winged bowl
All the world in dusky darkness while DANU flows through

Clippity clippity cloven clop


Faery folk grassy and talismanic
Hold blessed candles tied by wick
Swing and sing on Danu's tunic
Tales of amber holy stones
Rolling around their minds
Long sagas of insect chirping
Sounding up the elemental colony

Clippity clippity cloven clop

All air earth goddess sweetened Danu's love
Divine one breathes out
All breathe Maiden Mother Baby Crone
Wisdom interlocked


All breathe in the astral light
Ravens beaking the light to flight
Blended rising cosmic chants
Votive smoke black mark the stars
Clouds paint a lightning mask
Danu in sidhe (shee) invocation
Replenishing the atmosphere
Waxing Full Waning
Tuatha de Dannan throw their torcs to the aura


DANU still alive in yesterday's shadow
In the seeds of tomorrow 's growth
In the eyes of the wolf birthing
Engulfed in soil reincarnation
Everything flowers as Danu
As every Bain's cord combed from the plaits of Danu
Trees ..the eye of Danu sees from beneath its bark
The landscape in its ritual winds
Leafs of compassion Danu
Fall as pentacles
On the raising faery footed dust
Pastel incandescence surrounds this omnipresent tribe


As last light carried
Flickers the face of Lugh
Gargan-tuan hammers
Alchemical tongs thither
Beat for their celestial travel

Clippity clippity cloven clop

On the revered swaying anvil an abstraction of Danu
On any reflective surface the first sight seen
Before our own Danu

Clippity clippity cloven clop

The hope of wet wood burning
Dirt on our hands from fresh potato Danu
Her healing enfolds our senses
Quells the mortal fear of death


Following Danu
Her track raven footed crow stepping
It is the seeing of the owl
Is the pawed knotted straw throw
The wash of divine free salmon roe

Clippity clippity cloven clop

The earth spins from behind her back
Her radiant hand does the spinning
The last light dancing now
Goddess flaming
Miming gold on the ashe
Fire glazes her glowing


Clan in hypnotic smoldering light


Earth mother is ancient triad
Is triple goddess


Danu opens her arms and she beams
Beams cascading the slumbered valleys
All hearthstones draped in her beams
Display her bestowal of light
Inflorescence of her devotional axis

Clippity clippity cloven clop

The omniscient mare moon full
Births her hallowed aurora foal
Soil begins to warm the pagan soul
Tepid still blood flushed alive
This morning ocean in fish eyed wonder
As it be on every tide
From Lag na Sionna
The sacred Shannon mixing far into the deeps
Swirling
Uncovers a salt idol of Danu
Every new day
DANU
